Who came up with the dark matter?

I am researching that question too, All I know is: · dark matter is hypothetical matter that is undetectable by its emitted radiation · presence can be found from gravitational effects on visible matter · Dark matter is believed to play a central role in structure formation1 and galaxy evolution1 · most of the matter in the entire Universe is invisible · invisible stuff is called dark matter · called "dark" because it does not emit any light · cannot be seen directly Have fun!

Is dark matter Solid liquid or gas?

We do not know as we have not found any dark matter to examine. The only way we detect it and know it exists is due to its gravitational attraction of the ordinary matter we can see. One speculation when neutrinos were discovered to have tiny nonzero masses was that dark matter might be neutrinos. Another speculation is that dark matter is only ordinary matter, but its in another separate universe in a shared higher dimensional spacetime. Nobody knows.

What is the state of most of the matter is the universe?

The most common type of energy/mass in the Universe is in the form of dark energy, followed by dark matter. Only about 4% of the Universe is in the form of "normal" (baryonic) matter. If it is specifically to this matter you refer: the most common state of matter is plasma, found in stars.
